I like to make my wallet tidy. I always put the biggest denomination at back of my wallet and the smaller the number the fronter the bill will be. Furthermore, I always put the bills with head upwards. In this case, everytime when I buy something and get change I spend several seconds to tidy the bills and put them into my wallet as my own way. Even if I don’t look at the clerk and the person who is stand in line behind me, I can tell how surprise and upset they are with yelling in their mind “hurry up”.

I like to make my wallet tidy so I always put the biggest denomination at the back of my wallet and the smaller the number the more to the front the bill will be. Furthermore, I always put the bills with the head the right way up. In this case, every time / when, I buy something and get change I spend several seconds to tidy up the bills and put them into my wallet. Even if I don’t look at the clerk and the person who is standing in line behind me, I can tell how surprised and upset they are and that they are yelling silently / thinking to themselves / and that their minds are all screaming “hurry up”.

Upgrade: old version: I always put the biggest denomination at the back of my wallet and the smaller the number the more to the front the bill will be. Furthermore, I always put the bills with the head the right way up.

new version: I always put the notes in order from largest to smallest, with the largest at the back and the heads of the notes all facing the right way up.
